It’s been 2 months since the foundations of the Multiverse were shaken to their very core. Now that some time has passed, and we’ve had some crucial meetings, we are able to give you a new update on the state of Sentinels of the Multiverse 2 development. 

Due to the uncertainties that arose after the staff reductions at Greater Than Games and Flat River Group back in April, Sentinels of the Multiverse 2 has been delayed until 2026. We’re happy to say that many of those uncertainties have now been resolved. The game is still under development, and nothing else has changed in terms of our target platforms, features, and other goals.

We know this news may be disappointing for you, but we're doing our best to make sure the game comes out, even if it's a bit delayed. In the meantime, check out these rough animations we're working on for the villains taking damage!

We thank you for your ongoing support and patience. The Multiverse will live on!

Yesterday we learned that Flat River Group, the company that has owned Greater Than Games for the last several years, has chosen to essentially shut the company down in light of the current untenable tariff situation in the USA. We can't say much more beyond that as we don't know much more beyond that.

What we do know is that, as far as we have been told, this does not affect our work on the digital versions of Greater Than Games' titles. Spirit Island and Sentinels of the Multiverse: The Video Game will continue to be sold and supported, and this has not changed the status of this project.

Sentinels of the Multiverse 2 is still under development.

On a personal note, Handelabra Games would not be here if it weren't for Christopher, Paul, and Adam from Greater Than Games, who contacted us way back in 2012 to say "you said you wanted to make Sentinels digital? Well now you can!" Over these last 13 years, we have grown together alongside the Greater Than Games team, and seeing them unceremoniously ended like this is really quite tragic.

Thank you Greater Than Games for letting us play in your Multiverse all these years. We promise to be good stewards of your world, in the hopes you can one day return to ours. 💔

Warm sun has finally started to peak through the clouds of the chilly north, which means we can stretch our limbs and take a breather. While we’re doing that, let’s talk about what we’ve been up to in terms of development. 

The low level programming of the rules of the game and content (heroes, villains, and environments) is well underway. All of the Freedom Five and half of the environments are complete, along with a couple of villains to test them against. The Prime Wardens are up next! We're also working on the UI, but that's not in a place where we can showcase it yet.

Last time we showed you some idle animations, which were intentionally very subtle. The goal is a little bit of life, not a distraction. However, these heroes and villains aren't always idle! Sometimes they have to take actions, and so we're working on more animations to signify they are doing something. Here's what we have so far for the Prime Wardens and their occasional companion, Ra!
